Join directly to Google+, No Invitation Needed (?)

Within a week of launch of Google+, Google’s New Social Network has quickly gained popularity among netizens due to its simplicity, privacy, features and design. But people can join Google+ through invitation only, which feature was also turned off later by Google because of ‘insane demand’.


I’ve invited more than 50 people recently. And many people are still asking me to send request to them, since people cannot join Google+ directly. Google has not resumed its invitation service, neither it allows you to join Google+ directly.


But today, I’ve seen something strange on Google+ homepage. Google+ has asked me to join Google+ directly by signing with my Google Account. When I navigate to plus.google.com, there is a message which says “Join Google+, simply sign in with your Google account to start using the new parts of Google”.

I was surprised to see that message, but I’ve not found any official announcement from Google. I’ve tried to sign in with another Gmail account; I got entry on Google+. It’s amazing that I’m able to join Google+ directly, while many people are still complaining that, Google+ says limited capacity.

Well, if you wish to join Google+, just go to plus.google.com and sign in with your Google Account (Not Google Apps Yet).

Here is the screenshot of Google+ Homepage:

Update: It seems it is accessible in some area only. People are still complaining that they are unable to join Google+ directly.
